This is a complex one and actually a larger issue but personally I think society writ large needs to shift away from businesses having their sole purpose as making money. There is much more to life than making money. Businesses can be good for their communities and do much more than just spin a profit. Especially businesses that are monopolies or enshrined oligopolies like the NHL or Rogers. They need to be much more than just about making money. In fact I would argue they have an ethical and moral obligation to be highly engaged society contributors- much more than they are now even. For example, preying on young people to get hooked on sports gambling is quite disgusting. Having the balls to say, ya know what, that’s not somewhere we should take our business.
Should we hire these possible rapists (WJHC players) because they’re good at hockey? Ya know what, maybe they don’t deserve the job just because they’re better hockey players. You know, stuff like that.
